The future of Dawn of darkness.qrk file, explained

I will release on moddb and here, a new version of Dawn of darkness.qrk (as you know, the file which contains everything, that you can make in Quark editor, maps and prefabs).

The release will contain :

The first image shows a bounding box which was not fixed, in the second image example you can see a bounding box fixed. As i already mentioned, a bounding box is a frame like box around a md2 (Quake 2 model), which shows where exactly you can put a model (on a bookshelf, on a floor etc.), so you will not put it too high or too low.

- Bounding boxes fixed

- Prefabs included and explained. Anssi Hyytiainen prefabs have a "*" on the end of a prefab name. For example, house*. My prefabs and my brother prefabs, doesen't have a "*".

- Functions explained. I'm thinking, that, besides the various explanations of npc (mood name etc.), i should explain functions and many others (func_object, func_wall etc), in next Dawn of darkness.qrk file relese. This have been done before by the Quake 2 community, but i will do it.

You may not copy from this blog my words, videos, images in any sort of way, without asking me first to give you my approval. You can post in english or romanian language. All of this are, in part, within Quake 2 Dawn of Darkness total conversion, trough a fantasy setting. The romanian moldavian part is added because is where i live and the history theme with the turks.We are not affiliated in the past and present with any of the game company, and neither are we own one.

The present and future map making and modding we will make and upload, with my brother (we work on modding under the username Roarke here and Roarkes on Moddb site, and helping each other), will only be available in the moddb, this site, freesound and soundcloud.

My thanks go to the original team, Ward Six Entertainmentand the uploader Toadeater and EricBoyce1 (Dawn of Darkness 1.2 Text Mod).

For anyone who wants and post in this blog, refrain from talking bad about other countries, culture, religion, politics etc. and avoid flame war. We all want to learn something in our lives and don't hate each other.I hope you will find here interesting things :)
